Hello all, I read the white papers of projects offering the cryptocurrencies card, such as TenX, TokenCard or Uquid. Could anyone explain me how the conversion from cryptocurrency to fiat is made when the card holder pay the merchant?
Thanks in advance for your response

you hand bitcoin to the service.
the service privately sells the bitcoin for fiat on exchanges to refill its fiat reserves,
the fiat reserves the service have are used to topup/charge/load the debit cards
but all the customer see's is that they hand over bitcoin and get credited fiat on their card

Thanks If you are from the EU, you can check XAPO as well, they have a bitcoin debit card directly linked to your bitcoin wallet, so they do the exchange on the fly when you use your card, you don't need to top up your card every time. Their support is always overloaded, you can check about them in the bitcointalk forum as well, they have their own thread. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=902526.0

My question is: Is there any way to implement this myself, to be independant from those platforms?

You either exchange it personally with someone for fiat, buy a product or service with bitcoins or trust a platform to send you cash for bitcoins (Cash directly to your bank account with some fees.).

Thanks! Can anyone describe me what is the workflow behind a fiat-cryptocurrency exchange? From a legal point of view, my bank transfer money to the app (let's say TenX): how does TenX change my fiat into Crypto? Do they have a real bank account ?
